Reviews and Ratings

Carolyn Hetke rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

A lovely Canadian Bordeaux style blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cab Franc with an enticing nose of dried red fruit, a hint of garrigue and dusty rose. The palate is quite fruit driven with great balance and structure. Serve with steak or grilled game sausage. Tasted February 2020. www.thewineloverskitchen.com
From Stoney Ridge in the Niagara Peninsula wine region, The Tragically Hip Fully Completely 2017 is an easy-to-enjoy red wine blend of Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and Cabernet Franc with plum spice, dark berry and toasted nut flavours on the palate. Nicely balanced. Pair with a pork roast. - Community Wine Reviews
